Take a jour­ney through the apartheid his­tory of South Africa and visit some of Cape Town’s vibrant town­ship com­mu­ni­ties. Wit­ness the town­ship res­i­dents’ strug­gles against apartheid and their attempts to uplift them­selves through the estab­lish­ment of infor­mal trad­ing and com­mu­nity cen­tres.

Your tour takes you into the town­ships of Cape Town, where you will get to inter­act with res­i­dents, visit a thriv­ing com­mu­nity project and drink home­made beer in a she­been. Make this full day tour with a trip to Robben Island, where Nel­son Man­dela and other famous ANC mem­bers were imprisoned.
